Parameters used are:

Plotting (Figure 1 a)

Plotting (Figure 2 b)

Explaination of interaction plot (Figure S2)

Interaction plots (only mother) (Figure 3 a, b)

The distances are not from the permiter of the mother but from the center of the mother location. (The radiuses range from 1 to 120 CM).

Permutation Tests - Number of excursions and time spent ~ Distance

Using permutation testing to compare the mean curves of excursions ~ distance and % of time near mother ~ distance.

Difference in curves (Figure S1 a, b, c, d)

Testing Distance between curves

Testing the hypothesis that the mean curve of the TD infants is higher than that of the NTD infants

Mors plots of touching (Figure 6)

Mors plot of the frame in which the infant is touching the mother.

Comparing different statistics (Figure 7)

Testing the difference of different statistics (Wilcoxon test), the data was transformed for plotting.

Effect size is given by \(\frac{|\bar{x} - \bar{y}|}{SD}\). All tests conducted are Wilcoxon sum rank test, which do not require assumptions regarding the underlying distribution of observations.
